The 26th Conference of Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP26) is turning out to be a total failure, African Civil Society leaders have declared. Speaking on Saturday during the Global Day of Action that was marked by demonstrations around the city of Glasgow, Mithika Mwenda, a Kenyan and Executive Director of Pan African Climate Justice Alliance, said there was little to look forward to for the continent.
